2021 Volume 30 Issue 8 “Trials and Temptations”
Have you ever stopped and wondered the truth? It simply amazes us to see how people react to the Word of God. We’ve seen people come to Crossroads Church and just Praise the Lord for finding a Church where they could learn the truth and verify the teachings with the Bible. Their family members would be saved and loved serving the Lord. They would just receive blessing after blessing, then the battles would begin. The testing time that comes in every Christian’s life. We have been warned about these trials that are to come our way. In I Peter 1:6, the Word says, “Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of golc that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honor and glory at the appearance of Jesus Christ.” Then in I Peter 4:12, it says, “Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when His glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.” People simply dont understand the change in someone’s life after they get saved. All Christians should be taught that trials and temptations are coming their way that’s when it is crucial for them to remain grounded in the Word of God and to stay in Church with their Christian Family. Oncew the blood has been applied, we are sealed until the day of redemption. (Ephesians 1:13 & 4:30) This seal remains with you and no one can break the seal of God.
Go Forward
This is what the Holy Spirit told us to do. He reminded us of the scripture this Ministry was founded on, ” Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.” He emphasized the word, “Go” the word, “go” means to go foward, it doesn’t mean to go backward or to stand still. We knew we were to do everything possible to lead the lost to Jesus Christ. Christians please listen, Jesus Christ is about to return to get His body and we must warn our loved ones and all that are about to go to hell. We have eternal life, but there are millions that will spend eternity in the Lake of Fire if we sit still and do not warn them. We must show them the way. Jesus Christ is the only way. John 14:6
Jesus is the answer arounf the world!
What a Privilege
What a privilege it is to serve God that knows everything there is to know about us and yet He still loves us. each of us have things in our life that spouses, friends and neighbors dont know. However, God knows every thought, every action and every sin we have ever committed and yet His love for us is still unconditional. Aren’t we blessed to serve a God that’s forgiving and merciful to each of us? sometimes, we need to sit back and meditate on just how much god had to love us to send His only begotten Son, Jesus, to take our place on the Cross. Imagine how He must have felt as He knew His Son was dying for the wicked sinners of this world. We hope that everyone, reading this letter, is as grateful as we are for the mercy that was extended to us. We are blessed to have been called and chosen to be a part of His family. Isn’t it comforting to know that He dwells inside us, to watch over us and take care of us at all times? he is a God worthy of all our Praise, for without Him we are nothing. We need to thank Him continually for loving us, saving us and choosing us to be a part of His family.
The Greatest Year Ever!
The Lord gas told us that this year was the year for His children. He let us know that all His children had to do , was claim their blessings and remain committed. We are seeing our prayers answered for us, as well as, the Lord’s blessings being poured out upon our family and the Ministry. Take authority over everything you have and stand committed to serving the Lord. When you pray, ask believing and pray with the authority that Jesus has given each one of us. Command the foreces of evil to leave you and your household alone. It;s time to go to the enemy’s camp and take back everythings that the devil has taken from you. god hs given us the power over the enemy of this earth and He tells us to use that power. Pray down God’s anointing upon you and your family. Command the devil, in Jesus’ name to loose his holf on your parents, spouse, children, grandchildren, work plave, home, school, and friends and life. This is our year. Let’s make the very best of it by taking god at His Word and receiving every blessing that has our name on it.

Sinner’s Prayer

I ask Jesus to come into my heart and be my Saviour and write my name in the Lamb’s book of life for I ask it in Jesus’ name Amen.
Please continue to pray for this Ministry that we not be deceived.
